Dane harriers regain SUNYAC title

By Tom k Kacandes

ee aiicag lias coming. 14 bash
Saturday, the Albany State men’s cross-
country team dramatically unseated the
Fredonia State dynasty from the SUNYAC.
‘throne as the Danes put all five scoring
runners in the top fifteen places to win the
SUNY cross-country title and bring the
Blue Devils six-year domination of the
conference to a very abrupt end.

Albany placed six runners in front of
Fredonia’s fifth man to outscore the Blue
Devils 47 to 53, while Cortland actually
had the tightest pack of runners, all five
between 13th and 22nd, which earned
them third’ place overall, SUNY-Buffalo,
bolstered ‘by the transfer of four solid har-
riers, came out of nowhere to edge
Geneseo for fourth place, 140 to 146.

Dane Jim Erwin led the race for most of
the first mile setting a fast pace. Ed McGill
then took the lead near the two-mile mark
while the Danes had swarmed to the front
of the pack. Said Munsey, ‘That had to
shake them (Fredonia) up some. I told our
guys that I wanted them to go out very
hard and by the mile mark it was Albany,
Fredonia, and some scattered individuals,
None of our first six faded back. They
stayed right where they went out, Fredonia
had to run with us more than we had to
run with them,””

By the third mile McGill had slipped to
third as méet-winner Jeff Byrk of Buffalo
State opened up a big lead, Meanwhile the
‘back end of the Dane pack slowly picked
off Fredonia’s runners and opened up a
five-point lead,

‘McGill fed the Danes to the finish line by
finishing third overall (26:17) right bet-
ween Fredonia’s first man Michael
Gaughran (26:12), and their second, Art
McArthur (26:21). Albany’s number two
man, junior Ian Clements, finished
seventh in 26:33, well ahead of Fredonia's
third man, Kevin Ramsey (26:42).

Erwin ran the second, third, and fourth
miles ‘‘harder than I ever have, in my life’?

route 20th in 27:23 by outkicking Rick

Purcio, Fredonia’s number five man,
thereby adding a displacement point to the
final score.

‘After all of the runners had come
through the chute, the Danes stood in a
‘cluster quietly while the scores were being
tabulated, Fredonia’s runners sat together,
exhausted and dimly aware that the im-
possible had happened. Then Albany
Head Coach R. Keith Munsey gave a shout
and skipped over to his team and the
Danes began jumping on top of each other
and shouting in celebration. “We wanted
this very. very badly," explained senior
captain Chris Callaci,

‘The exuberance of the celebration mat-
ched the team's nervousness the night
before. ‘We have nothing against
Fredonia personally,’ junior Craig
Parlato explained,‘‘but when one team
dominates for so long , people get sick of
them." "We got a lot of support from
other teams and coaches," Coach Munsey
said, “‘s0 I told my boys, ‘Hey, the eyes of
the SUNY Conference are on you’."" Cap-
tain Jim Erwin recalled, “Yeah, that wi
great, We were totally nervous after that.””
Sophomore Tim Hoff said, “We heard
that Doc Phillips, the Fredonia coach, had
told somebody, ‘I don’t think Albany can
run with us.” and I said ‘Okay, buddy,
we'll see you ther

‘Sasessing the meet in retrospect and his
team’s future Munsey began: ‘It was a
real dogfight, a horse race. Was Fredonia
tougher than last year? Yes, they were ,
but we're even more improved. We're s0
improved that a lot of people have and will
underestimate what we can do, but that’s
okay, We're not going to let this make

work cut out for us.' ‘The

Norwich’s second half rally stuns Danes, 27-17

Dave Soldini ran ra ampant for 209 yards against Norwich Including a 91-yard scamper

rly in the first period,

By Marc Berman
SPORTS BDITOR
Northfield, VT

For more than 29 minutes of the
30-minute half, the Albany State defense
silenced the Norwich’s high-powered of-
fense along with their 75 millimeter
howitzer, which is traditionally shot off
after every Cadets touchdown.

But then, the Dane’s greatest adversary
this season, the turnover, started to play a
role in Saturday's game, which Albany
State eventually lost 28-17.

In all, there were four Albany misc
each one playing a part in Norwich’s stirr-
ing comeback, which saw them wipe out
17-0 Great Dane advantage.

‘And during this Norwich comeback, the
ancient cannon exploded four consecutive
times; once late in the first half and three
times in the second half, while Albany
State failed to retaliate with any firepower
.of thelr own,

“We feel crushed right now,” sald a
somber Dave Soldini, who had a spec-
tacular 209 yard rushing effort including a
91-yard touchdown gallop in the first
period. ‘It’s a tough loss to take,””

“The team let down a bit,” added
linebacker Jim Valentino, who sat
slumped in the front of his locker in the
depressing Dane's dressing room, “We
should've come after them in the second
half and killed them right there.””

If it weren't for the turnovers, Coach
Bob Ford felt his Danes just might have
done that those turnovers,"
said Ford is head, ‘‘we might've
blown them out.”

“It wasn’t the amount of turnovers,””
commented offensive line coach Ed
Zaloom, “It’s just that we turned the ball
over in such key situations.””

Albany's initial turnover helped in-
directly towards the Cadets crucial first
touchdown, which came late in the first
half, Their final three blunders came in the
second half—two leading to Cadet scores
while the third killed an Albany scoring
threat,

‘The Danes’ afternoon started off almost
as elegant as the scenery surrounding Nor-
thfield, Vermont's Sabine Field, Autumn-
colored mountain ranges framed the foot-
ball field and the persistent sun only added
to it’s beauty,

Beautiful was the only way to describe
the Danes’ second offensive play of the
‘game, Soldini bolted right on the veer and
was able to outsprint the Norwich secon-
dary for a 91-yard touchdown run.

Dave Lincoln booted a 43-yard field
goal on the next possession, which was aid-
ed by two 10-yard: gains by Soldini, who
compiled 154 yards by halftime.

The lead increased to 17-0 when the
Danes put together a flawless 10-play,

Buffalo students pull $4M from Marine Midland

Allegedly giving loans to com.

‘The account belongs to the Stu-

Students split on quality of academic advisors

By Lisa Mirabella
CONTRIBUTING EDITOR

This is the first of two articles on the state of academic
advisement at SUNYA.

“Advisement! What's advisement?” senior Eric Dorf
demanded, at the mention of the word. On the eve of pre-
registraion for next semester, many students may be sear-
ching for: the answer to that question...or for their
advisors.

“The difficulty on this campus,"" accor-
ding to Robert Gibson, acting director of
the Center for Undergraduate Education
(CUB), “is that the students and staff do
not have a commonly agreed upon defini-
tion of what academic advisement is.""

‘Asa result of what Gibson called ‘mismatched expec-
tations,”” there is a gap in the advisement process.

Debi Greenwald, now a junior in the School of

One sophomore said, ‘I expect information to be of-
fered to me." Describing her unhappiness with her CUE
adyisor, she said, “I had to pull everything out of her."

Gibson said “ihe advisors depend on the students to
raise specific questions."

First year student Gail Crawford praised the advise-
ment process. “My advisor gave me suggestions on
courses and professors. She also made suggestions about
career and long-term goals."”

Crawford summed up the session saying, “She

Vandalism in student dorms is increasing at
SUNYA, leaving administrators upset, lounges trash-
ed, and one student escaping injury by only a few feet

on Colonial Quad.

“T have little tolerance for this activity," said Assis-
tant Vice President for Fac ies Dennis Stevens, of the
increased vandalism on all five quads. Students, he
maintained, ‘thave. adopted a laissez-faire attitude
about the damage.”

Much of the vandalism, said Stevens, has been
directed at five safety devices, including heat sensors
fire alarms and especially fire extinguishers.

said, ‘We went beyond what was required by safety
regulations — to ensure safety” in the dormitories.

“We don’t want the Feminist Alliance on

Campus porno gaining acceptance

(COLLEGE PRESS SERVICE) Several cam-
uses once again have opted to approve us-
ing campus funds and facilities to run por-
nographic movies during the last month.

Most recently, University of Virginia
President Frank Hereford has refused a
National Organization of Women (NOW)
invitation to view the movie “Deep
Throat."

NOW wanted to enlist Hereford’s sup-
port in banning the film from UVa, where
it was shown as a fundraiser for the Phi
Sigma Kappa fraternity two weeks ago.

Hereford, in a letter to Cynthia Taylor,
president of the Charlottesville, Va.,
NOW chapter, said that while he ‘
sonally abhors this kind of thing,"
feared banning the film would violate the
First Amendment to the U,S, Constitu-
tion, Taylor reports.

Also fearing it'd quash free speech, an

Auletta said it was “totally ludicrous for

was “‘very irresponsible of the leadership

Prof finds ancient Mayan city hidden in jungle

By Pam Schusterman ,

Discovering ancient cities in the
jungles of Latin America doesn’t
sound like everyday work for a
University professor, but when
SUNYA archeologist Richard
Leventhal found one this summer
it wasn't quite the same as a
Hollywood action movie either.

Leventhal, a Harvard graduat
has been conducting research in
Latin America for the last ten
years. He is involved, he said,
with many projects, and is also
organizing his own expedition,
“The Southern Belize Ar-
cheological Project."’ It was while
working on this project that he
discovered a missing link in his
regional study of the Maya
civilation.

According to Leventhal he had
been to the sight of the discovery
at least ten times before and never
noticed it, ‘This is due to the
thickness of the jungles," he said,
“you generally can’t see more
than five feet in front of you.”

“A discovery like this one is
fairly rare in occurence," he said,
comparing it to ‘‘finding
Rockefeller Center in New York
City and then being able to ex-
pand from there."”

The city, which villagers and
expedition members named ‘Ux-
benka’ for “‘old place’ or ‘‘an-
cient place,” dates back from
about 400 A.D. to 800 A.D.,
Leventhal said, and is located
near Santa Cruz, not far from the
Guatemalan border. The city, he
said, is filled with monuments
and tombstones glorifying the

rulers of the Mayan culture.

Leventhal said that only 30 per-
cent of the hieroglyphics found
can‘be thoroughly read, and that
another 30-40 percent can be
generally understood, while the
rest is undecipherable,

Leventhal said he is not a
specialist in hieroglyphics and
interest is to ‘focus on civiliza-
tion from an archeologic perspec-
tive.” He said “the writings are
very important because they were
found in context and you get a
much more thorough understan-
ding of (Mayan) culture when i
found this way."

“It’s a rarity to find (a site) in
context, even when an ar-
chaelogist gets to it it has usually
already been looted,” said An-
thropology doctoral candidate
Peter Dunham, who accom-
panied Leventhal.

Looters find a site first,
Dunham said, because they have
more money for exploration since
they sell the rare objects they find
at great profit.

The discovery is of significant
importance in a theory that
Leventhal is working on, which
entails studying areas as small
regions and then analyzing the in-
terdependence regions have with
each other.

‘This particular city is one of
five or six cities within a ten to fif-
teen kilometer range, Leventhal
said, making the region a good
case study of regional
civilizations.

The unusual thing about the
Maya civilizations is that no

‘any of the others, ‘There is no

r
Albanys within a 10 kilometer
range.”

“Since there is no dominant ci-
ty we have to begin to examine
social, political, economic and
religious interaction between the
cultures,” he said, Such a study,
Leventhal believes, would reveal a
part of the Mayan culture that has
been hidden from modern

studies.

Leventhal said that although
the discovery may make his work
sound exciting, ‘‘In reality ar-
cheology is a lot of drudgery and
hard work." Living conditions in
Latin America can take getting
used to, he said, noting the lack
of bathrooms and electricity, as
well as having to learn to sleep in
hammocks.

According to Leventhal an ex-

‘wild goose chases’ before

Occasionally finding something

said,

Leventhal has applied for a

ment funded National Science
Foundation and said he hopes to

“Ic seems that if they (women) are col-
lege students and they are pregnant, they
are more likely to get an abortion than to
continue the pregnancy," — Planned
Parenthood official, Albany.

According to statistics gathered by Plan-
ned Parenthood in 1980, 45 percent of
pregnancies in New York State among
women ages 20-24 were terminated by
abortion.

Planned Parenthood literature reveals
hat of the 1.6 million women who got
abortions in 1980 in the U.S., one third of
them were between the ages of 20 and 24.
One staff member at Planned Parenthood
asserts that the largest bracket of clientele
which they serve is the 20-24 age group.

An abortion ‘tis any procedure or in-
tervention that results in the termination
of a pregnancy," according to Planned
Parenthood literature.

Technically, said Sandra Walek-
MiMura, Director of Community Services

for Planned Parenthood, the process is an
extraction of the contents of the uterus, It
is an uncomfortable process, she said, and
anesthesia is administered.

According to one SUNYA student who
had an abortion and asked not to be iden-
tified, the process was, in her case, very
painful, although it wasn't supposed to be.
She attributed the pain, in part, to the
shape of her uterus.

The operation was performed during the
first trimester of her pregnancy and took
between 15 and 20 minutes, she said, in-
cluding time for the anesthesia, She said
she was given a local anesthesia and was
charged $190 for the operation,

Another SUNYA student who found
out from a SUNYA infirmary pregnancy
test that she was pregnant said she was
referred to an Albany-area gynecologist,
who was “very nice"? and helped her a
great deal.

She said that the doctor, knowing her
financial difficulties, charged her $200 —

half the price for her abortion.

The process, with a local anesthesia,
caused a lot of pain but took less than one-
half hour, she said, According to the stu-
dent, she was ‘laid-up’ for about one day,
and suffered no ‘radical’ changes in her
system following the operation.

She was a freshman at the time,

According to at least one women who's
had an abortion, the best place for preg-
nant women considering abortions to seek
guidance is a doctor or Planned Paren-
thood, Never trust classified ads, she said.

In the Albany area, Planned Paren-
thood, 259 Lark Street, is one place where
pregnant women may be advised on all
aspects of pregnancy, The Upper Hudson
Division of Planned Parenthood handles
pregnancy tests and discusses options with
pregnant women.

If the woman decides to continue the
pregnancy, explained a Planned Paren-
thood staff member, they can recommend
doctors who offer pre-natal care services,

Clark declares U.S. compulsory education ‘faceless’

By Johanna Clancy
STAFF WRITER

Rather than making career decisions at
18 or 21, students should have to make
shoices when they are younger so they
don’t grow bored with school and drop-
out, said UCLA Sociologist Burton Clark
ina speech at SUNYA Tuesday.

“A 15 or 16 year old should have a
choice of education," said the world
reknowned specialist in comparative
higher education,

Clark called compulsory education
“faceless,” because only a common
education is taught. He said more speciliz-
ed schools permit a higher qualitiy of
education, and cited the Bronx School of
Science as an example,

‘American college education offers
enough variety, Clark said, because it of-
fers open access, functional programs, and
research programs together.

Likewise, he maintained, primary
education serves its purpose in the U.S. by
adequately providing a general education,

Therefore, he argued, secondary, or
high school education is the weak link in
the American school system. ‘We're not
doing something quite right in the hand-
ing of education," he said, explaining that
secondary education in the U.S. serves as
an extension of elementary school, rather
than as a link to college.

In Europe, Clark said, secondary educa-
tion serves as a time for exploration, when
students can decide their own educational
direction,

Some European students choose to go to
vocational school to learn a trade, In
America, these schools, Clark explained,
are thought of as dumping grounds. While
75 percent of European students prefer
vocational school, he said, only 24 percent
choose that same path in the U,S,

If adoption or foster care is chosen as an
option, the staff can recommend a proper
agency, In the case of a woman who wants
an abortion, Planned Parenthood recom-
mends an area doctor.

Payment, said a Planned Parenthood
staff member, is based on a scale in which
high school and college students pay less
than full-time professionals. The
spokeswoman said that Planned Paren-
thod would never deny services to anyone
unable to pay, Their prices are generally
lower than gynecologists’, she added.

After the options are discussed, Planned
Parenthood refers the woman to a doctor,
said the staff member, The doctors have
their own fees, she said, but they generally
vary between $200 and $500, with abor-
tions involving hospital stays costing ap-
sroximately $1000.

According to Planned Parenthood
literature, the average price for abortions
in the U.S, in 1980 was $190.

‘The Schenectady division of Planned
Parenthood currently is a ‘health care
center that provides abortion services,”
Walek-MiMura said,

Planned Parenthood also offers con-
fidential clinical services, including
>regnancy tests, on the SUNYA campus,
the noted.

‘On campus pregnancy tests are available
at the Student Health Services building, A

Big hurricane damages foretold

until people, nature can coexist

By J.C. Hayden

Humanity must learn to live
with nature and not try to control
it if hurricane damage and injury
is to be held to a minimum, accor-
ding to National Hurricane
Center Director Neil Frank, who
spoke Tuesday as part of a
SUNYA lecture series,

The National Hurricane Center
is responsible for tracking storms
in the Caribbean and on the
Eastern seaboard of the U.S., and
is responsible for trying to deter-
mine the path of the storms so
authorities can be alerted of the
dangers.

The lecture series was spon-

DAVID ISAAC UPS
Neil Frank

sored by SUNYA’s Atmospheric
Sciences Research Center and the
State Department of En-
vironmental Conservation.

Frank used a 1938 storm to il-
lustrate how dangerous hur-
ricanes can be. This particular
storm was spotted off the east
coast of the Bahamas, and, thirty
hours later ripped across Long
Island with 60 mile per hour
winds.

Other hurricanes have ventured
this far north, including three
storms which washed away parts
of Long Island in the early 1800's.
All three occurred within a 15
year span,

Hurricanes, Frank said, are
caused when a large, cold air mass
comes down from Canada and
combines with a warm southern
air mass in the tropics.

They are comprised of three
major elements; wind, rain and
storm surge. Storm surge takes
place when waves rush up on the
shore, excavate sand, and pull it
back out to sea, Frank explained,

The monster storms can reach
as far North as the Canadian
border, Frank said. “Maine is
susceptible,"’ he added, “‘but not
as likely as the southern New
England states,"" including New
York

Inland, the major forces of

destruction during a hurricane are
wind and rain, but, Frank said,
along the coastal areas, in addi-
tion to the wind and rain,
residents are also confronted with
the problems of storm surges,

Most beachfront properties are
ouilt on piers made of either
wood or concrete as opposed to a
slab concrete foundation, Frank
said. This means of construction,
he explained, leaves the building
highly susceptible to damage.

Storm surge, said Frank, can
remove sand from beaches to a
depth of 15 feet, When the sand is
removed, the building is left sit-
tixg on sticks, and waves can then
knock the piers over and the
house is reduced to ruins,

Frank said he is not opposed to
‘on beach properties, but that he is
opposed to building codes that
allow the construction of these
homes without any precautions
against hurricanes,

He also said people should not
be permitted to build homes
directly on beaches. If the homes
were built further from the
water's edge the potential danger
and loss would not be as great, he
said.

During the late 1960s and early
1970s a number of floods occur-

Rape seen as violent crime; expert
urges caution even among friends

By Laur! Cole

‘Speaker: When you think of the word ‘rape,"
what words come to mind?”

Audience reply: “*Violence."" “Fear.” “Force.
“Restraint.”

The audience, in this case, gave what profes-
sional Rape Crisis Counselors consider to be an ex-
zellent response, considering the fact that most peo-
ple regard rape as a sexually based crime. This is not
so, the speaker asserted.

Rape is a violent crime — a crime of anger and
hostility according to Barbara Moynihan, Director
of the New Haven Rape Crisis serving in
Schenectady.

Speaking last Thursday about “Rape on Cam-
pus,"’ Moynihan told the audience at Schenectady
County Community College, that one of the main
problems concerning rape is society's lack of
understanding of the crime. To illustrate her point,
she described the attitudes of some sex offenders
she'd spoken t

“Rape is a crime of violence, (it’s an) intrusion
of the most personal kind, second only to homocide
in its effects on the victim," she said.

Many people consider rape to be a sexually based
crime. This is a myth according to Moynihan, who
has worked with sex offenders in a maximum
security prison. Sex offenders often speak of their
victims as objects, she explained. ‘They seek to
degrade, humiliate and. overpower their victim —
‘most can never describe their victim after the
crime.” Many are sexually dysfunctional at the
time, as well, she said.

Rapists do not discriminate, either, she said, ad-
ding, ‘What a person has on has nothing to do with
the possibility of their being chosen as a victim by a
ist."” Although the act may be pre-meditated,
the victim chosen is not. ‘They are selected on the
basis of opportunity,” not sexual preference, she
said.

Moynihan suggested being self-aware and being
assertive as two ways of combatting sexual assualt
before it happens. When a student is walking on
campus, and a strariger approaches from the op-
posite direction, the student should look the
stranger in the eyes, Let the stranger know they're
alert — do not daydream, recommended
Moynihan, Vulnerability is what you want to avoid,
she said.

According to statistics in Connecticut, the
highest number of rapes occur beginning at 4 p.m.

and continuing until after 2 a.m. In spite of this,
she said, ‘We tend to be less careful during the day
than at night."

People between the ages of 10 and 19 are the
most vulnerable to rapists. The second most
vulnerable age group is between 20 and 29. The
most common age for offenders is between 20 and
29. The next most common is 30-39.

Since typical college aged students fall into both
these sets of categories, students of all ages must be
wary. And since it is also reported that at least 60
percent of all rapes are acquaintance rapes,
students should use caution in who they befriend
while walking late at night.

Moynihan suggested that students think ahead.
They need to remember that this crime ‘‘can hap-
pen to anyone," she said. Moynihan recommended
that students make “a plan to deal with the
possibility of being accosted ,

“There 1s no specific prescription for resistance

— each situation must be judged individually, but.

whatever you do, you should not compromise your
life,"* she said. Since the offender is used to using
weapons, the victim must be sure of his or her own
proficiency with a weapon.

Moynihan recommends trusting intuition in a
precarious situation, Take responsil
yourself — ‘trust people very selectively,

Perhaps the most alarming and ho:
provoking topic Moynihan addressed is the fact
that women are now forced to re-arrange their lives
to make provision for safety. “This threatens
women’s educational opportunities," she said.
When women have to arrange courses, tests,
meetings and studying time around the issue of
staying safe, “they are being denied some of theit
most fundamental rights as human beings," she
asserted.

Moynihan recommended many possible campus-
wide programs, Some of her suggestions were:
escort services, self-defense courses, emergency
phones, better lighting, rape crisis hotlines and
educational talks at orientation time.

In addition, Moynihan urged faculty members to
“‘be perceptive." Approach a student who seems
disorganized, bruised or severly anxiety-ridden,

According to Moynihan, administrators often ig-
nore the ever increasing problem of sexual assualt

notion that its only rape." a

“Prejudice paralyzes the heart
And, it is this numbness
Which denies all feeling of

your physical

inconveniences to restrict or stunt
your social, spiritual and educa-
tional growth. In a society, where
you have been label minority
because of your disability, you
have learned to struggle and
strive; knowing the negative
powers of defeat. Although you
may have encountered the many
dark facets of life throughout
your journey, you have retained
your flames of perseverence and
pride,

There is no doubt that our
society is composed of many in-
dividuals who tend to overlook
the forgotten. And sometimes,
you ‘may have encountered this
selfishness, feeling that in-
dividuals are out for themselves.
But somehow your inner
strength has carried you through
the thick of the night, and you
have not accepted defeat. Realiz-
ing that one of the many pro-
blems you face is adjusting and

have you illustrated the power of

have portrayed character as

‘Accepting your physical im-
pairment, has not stopped you
from maximizing your potentials,
Your being here at SUNYA con-
firms it. As you seek to enrich
your life academically and
develop new relationships, you in-
itiate growth. A growth that no
physical condition can ever han-
dicap. As you openly participate
and involve yourself in many ac-
tivities, you share yourself while
portraying your will to be
recognized. You have not chosen
seclusion, '"* you have given up
your seat in .i1e corner and have
actively included yourself,

Although our walks of life may

lurk in the hearts of people. 1
know what it is like to be an
underdog and non-recognized,
Yet, I know the power of action,
You have not waited for someone
to water you in order for growth,
but you have watered yourself.
Therefore, it is you who must be
responsible for your inner life in a
society which strongly depicts
literal selfishness,

Sometimes, as most minorities,
you have been treated unjustly
(Gust because you are a minority).
It is you who must right the
wrong. It is you who must con-
tinue to just the unjust. You must
dare when others don’t, and live
when others die within. As stated
sometimes, life ‘tis the survival of
the fittest,"" and only the fit-
test/strongest will survive. You
are responsible for your survival.
Before we can depend on others
we must know how to rely and de-
pend on ourselves.

You have given me a picture;

an insight to the beauty of life, as
you project determinism. In pro-
Bressing, you have inspired me to
progress and press forward. Your
genuity has taught me other
aspects of truth. Your reaching
out to establish social variations
and relationships has encouraged
me to welcome others who may
ethnically differ from me and
who's lifestyle varies,

Your inspiration has encourag- |

Our money in South Africa

\o. you mind that SUNY Central, and possibly
‘Marine Midland, help support one of the most
racist and oppressive governments on earth.?

The South African Republic exists on the principle
that 5/6 of its population, over 20 million blacks,
should be ruled and treated barely as third class
citizens by an clite white minority. This principle of
srtict racism is called apartheid.

Calling apartheid racist and oppressive is kind com-
pared to a-student resolution in June which indicted
South Africa as ‘a genocidal and fascist regime." The
United Nations has declared apartheid ‘‘a crime
against humanity,” and has called for universities and
other institutions to break all ties with the South
African government.

Marine Midlands ties to companies dealing with
South Africa are suspect. The bank is not on the
“‘clean list,’ which keeps track of companies who
have divested all their interests in South Africa,
Although other banks have divested, a Marine
Midland spokesperson claims ‘‘we are a business enti
ty, not a political entity.”

Where Marine Midland’s involement is merely
uncertain, SUNY’s ties to the racist government
couldn't be clearer,
> as of March 1983, $17.3 million dollars of the SUNY
Endowment Fund was in the hands of companies ac-
tiye in South Africa,

+ one of the largest of these investments is in IBM, the
major U.S. supplier of computers to South Africa.
IBM has served many of the depriments which enforce
aparthied policies, including Prisons, Interior,
Defense and Education,

» other major SUNY investments are in Ford and GM,
who are the number: two and three direct U.S. in-
vestors in South Africa.

* SUNY Chancellor Clifton Wharton sits on the
Board of Directors of Ford, which supplies vehicles to
the South African police and military.

There are other financial, personal and acedemic
ties between SUNY and South Africa, but these are
enough to prove that SUNY, one of the largest and
most extensive institutions of higher education in this
country, is heavily involved with one of the most in-
humane governments in the world.

There is no need for our university system to bei
volved like this. There is a process called divestmey
in which all investments directly or indirectly going i,
South Africa are sold off and invested in “cjeayy
companies. Other state university systems have doae

Barry Rich

Now, I'm not going to come down on President
Reagan or his views, as most articles in this publication
always seem to do, I’m not going to blast Mondale either,

Sunday's debate concerned the candidate's differing
views on foreign policy. This is basically my field of
study, so I was particularly interested. There are a lot of
things to be said about the different issues discussed. For
instance, Mondale’s foolish proposals to encourage
Eastern Bloc countries to turn against the Soviet Union.
That's pretty dangerous, expecially for a dove" like
Mondale, Equally ridiculous was Reagan's uncertainty
about whether the Shah did in fact mistreat his own peo-
ple, But this was all a tot of-small talk which doesn't real-
ly mean anything. Actually, sometimes | think that
everything these guys say is meaningless.

More importantly, both President Reagan and Mr.
Mondale had a lot to say about nuclear weapons. { think
both of them should look a little bit beyond their petty
partisan views and face reality.

First of all, both Reagan and Mondale went back and
forth on the question of who blew the IMF negotiations
this past year, The fact is that the Soviets turned down
Reagan's "zero option’® (no nuclear weapons in Europe)
and his subsequent proposals because British’and French
nuclear forces are viewed by Washington (and by Britain
and France) as being an independent issue, not to be in-
cluded in U,S.-Soviet negotiations concerning Europe.
Now, to us it is debatable whether or not these missiles
should be included. But, being that even a ‘‘zero option’?
still leaves the Soviets outnumbered by the British and the
French, it is not a matter of debate that the Soviets would
never agree to such a proposal. Eventually (if Europe is to
be ‘‘disarmed’') this issue will have to be addressed, 1
don’t recall hearing either one of them mentioning it.

President Reagan's offer to give a foolproof nuclear
defense technology to the Soviets is a great idea. Mondale
was wrong to attack it, or rather, it was his reasoning
which was incorrect, President Reagan’s generous offer is
based upon the assumption that the Soviets would trust
him to his word. That is a very poor assumption, The
chances are that they would not. Would Reagan (or Mon-
dale for that matter) allow the Soviets to build the
weapon and then give it to us Would you That's why at
the current stage of technology, space defense systems are

destabilizing as Mondale correctly pointed out, But even
he doesn’t seem to understand just why they are
destabilizing.

‘Mr, Mondale says he wouldn't even build the weapon,
But is that. the proper course Would not the Soviets
perceive this as weakness, and build their own Who
knows But since we dont’ know, we better make sure they
don’t build it, right

Let's play make believe, Let us assume that President
Reagan really does believe that a nuclear war can not be
won, and should not be fought. Reason suggests that he

should believe this, The only problem is that he is afraid
(and justifiably so) that perhaps the Russians don’t
believe it, In fact, Soviet military literature suggests just
that. Thus, we must build more weapons. This convinces
the Soviets that Reagan is some kind of right wing
fanatic, he wants to destroy the Soviet Union. Soviet
statements designed to deter Reagan from such thoughts
only reinforce our belief that the Soviets think they can
win a nuclear war. If this sounds like madness to you,
that’s because it js. [n this twisted world of mass destruc-
tion which we call the “nuclear age,” facts are irrelevant,
meaningless, The only things that count are perceptions
(or misperceptions) and distrust. Mondale says it himself:
“1 don't trust the Russians,”” That attitude might help
him to get a vote from Mr. Middle America, but it does
nothing to advance world disarmament." As long as
this atmosphere of mutual distrust and suspicion con-
tinues to exist, we all ought to do as the late Jim Morrison
suggested, ‘*get our kicks before the whole ----house goes
up in flames,"” Because it will go up in flames,

That's why I think these proposed yearly summit

meetings between U.S. and Soviet leaders are important,
even though they probably will not produce one lous
“agreement.” They are important not because they wil
provide some useless ‘forum’? where nothing but accuse
tions and insults are exchanged, The meetings would be
important because the two leaders would be able to gt
together and see each other as the flawed human beings

that they are. God forbid, they might even find that they
have something in common. Both nothing more than (wo

If you are not hooked in the fist fifteen
minutes of Thief of Hearts you never will
be, Thief is as slick as it is sleek. Like
oiled machine, the film glides to a
twist ending, sure to leave you wondering.

Steven Barter (Al Pacino's sidekick in
Scarface) plays Scott to slimey perfection.
He is a self-made invention of a woman's
desires, You want Scott to be a better per
son than his profession allows, but a single
gunshot shatters that illusion for good.
Bauer embodies Scott with an air of
mystery and charm, When he finally steals
the heart he's after, Scott reverts back to his
humble, streetwise self; not unlike the way
Bauer handled the portrayal of Manny
Rivera at the conclusion of Scarface.

As Mickey, Williams provides
enjoyment on se evels, Her acti
projects an awkward intensity unusual in a
debut performance. Williams also has

Ray Davis. John Getz’ lackadaisical perfor

A time for reflection (reflect, reflect, reflect.)

A word about the Holocaust, which is (obliquely) the subject of this
week's centerfold; I never felt very qualified to say anything about it. As an
Irish Catholic whose family was left relatively unmolested by the War and
what preceded it (my grandfather spent his war years in North Africa,
where, as he tells it, the most dangerous thing he ever shot at were
monkeys), I've always felt uniquely unwilling to express any thoughts over
something that had left me so completely unscathed while decimating so
many others. Not that I would forget it, or think lightly of it; I just didn’t
think it particularly my business to talk about it.

This week's centerfold is a photoessay by Roman Vishniac, an artist who
is qualified to talk about, and express an opinion on, the Holocaust; he was
there.

That's a pretty good qualification.
The Vishniac exhibit will be on show at the New York State Museum (at

the Plaza) until January 13th. It's probably worth your time, no?
I was always told that the most dangerous thing was that the Holocaust
might be forgotten. So when you look at this week's centerfold, remember.

| a firm grip on the action, which moves at a

For my money, Thief of Hearls was one
of the most engrossing psychological
thrillers in recent years, I fell into the action

Vishniac’s Vanished World

by Brian Jacobs

In. 1934, Roman Vishniac hea said, “from people close to Nazi ad-
ministration that the ‘Jewish problem’ would be solved by killing the Jews.
When | asked how great the danger was, they told me that no Jews would
survive if war broke out.”

When he tried to get word of the impending holocaust, people laughed
No one, Jews included, believed any group or government was capable of
murdering millions of people. The Jews he spoke with thought that the
most this particular wave of antisemitism would claim was 10,000, no
more. And‘ anti-semitism was nothing new. Jews had been persecuted for
centuries in Europe, but somehow they managed to survive. They thought
they would again.

But.Vishniac, fearing the worst, set out from his home in Berlin across
Poland, the Ukraine, Czechoslavakia, Romania, Hungary, Latvia and
Lithuania to preserve on film the world of his people that would shortly

Paul Winter Consort

lews

Heats Up Music Hall

ow often have you walked out of a
concert feeling that you've nt only
seen an incredible musical perfor-
ance and had a lot of fun, but experienc-
d something that inspires your spirit and
akes you feel better about the world.
t's a lot to ask for, but last Saturday
ight at the Troy Music Hall the Paul
inter Consort delivered

Louis Lewis

Paul Winter has for years composed and
Jayed a unique brand of music that brings
fhuman beings closer to nature. During this
concert he called’ upon his stock of
tharacters — whales, wolves, birds, the sun
ind the winter solstice, some on tape and
lcthers just in the imagination — to mystify
and delight the audience.

Musically, the Paul Winter Consort is
hard to classify. It's a unique kind of fusion,
that brings together folk, classical and tradi-
tional music with the sounds of jazz and
pop. What runs through all these different
elements is a deep sensitivity to the sounds

Ei of nature and the talent to express these

sounds to the appreciation of human ears.

ble joined in, aind soon the audience caught
on and began howling too, Suddenly the
music hall exploded, with hundreds of peo-
ple howling over the the sounds of the lone
wolf. When the piece came to a close with
2 last humm and howl, the audience broke
‘out in laughter and applause,

Winter had certainly made his point
about appreciating the wolves and their
sense of ritual

Animal music was not the only thing
that made this concert special, The musi-
cians playing with Paul Winter were ex-
ceptional, both for their skill and their
sensitivity,

Many of the pieces played during the
show were from an upcoming album of
music inspired by the sun, One of the more
unusual pieces, Sunshine and Shadows,
was an attempt to balance out the bright
and cheery (as in sunshine) theme of the
album. Before he put his lips to the reed
Winter warned that what was about to
happen was “totally spontaneous.”

Suddenly a deep sound arose from the
back corner of the balcony. Unseene a
haunting, bluesy contrabassoon (which
sounds something like a bass saxophone)

It's a unique kind of fusion, that brings together folk,

dlassical, and traditional music with the sounds of jazz

The ears in the Music Hall were especial-
ly appreciative Saturday night. The Troy
music Hall is reknowned for being one of
the most acoustically perfect concert halls
in the world. Combine the intensity of the
hall with the intensity of the Paul Winter
Consort and you have the makings of an
extraordinary experience,

One of the highlights of the evening was
the music which combined recordings of
animal sounds with human improvisation.
Alter the opening song, Winter introduced
2 piece called A Lullaby from the Gi
Mother Whale for the Baby Seal Pups.

A Lullaby opened with a recording of «
Humpback Whale blowing. The sad, haun:
ling sound is echoed by Winter's soft
suprano saxophone. Winter's. improvisa:
tion evokes the beauty and pathos of this

BM bizarre giant creature.

The whale blows, spanning milions of
years and miles with a ery that pierces and
hypnotizes the still audience. An interplay
fbeyins with the whale and Paul Hally, the
‘onsort’s pianist. The fast, rhythmic piano
weaves in and out of the whale’s drawn out
ries. Hally’s playing.is a kind of freeform
lassical sound, both ‘blending with and
ontrasting, to the Humpback’s call
Another remarkable composition in-
pired by the animal kingdom was HWolf
Eves, Winter introduced the piece by
fiscussing some of the reasons for humans
D appreciate wolves. He explained that
vi erous to humans, and
hat from their howling we can learn to ap:
reciate the sense of ritual that binds us to
he natural world. Wolf Eyes arose out of
p experience he had when finding himself
Bce to face with a wolf, an impression he
id he would never forget.
Like the whale music, Wolf Eyes opened
ith a chilling recording of a wolf howling,
the night. Winter began to improvise on
Je fading howl, blowing a slow, heavy
lies melody. His wilting sax filled the hall
ith bittersweet notes that scemed to wrap
pund you and draw you into the woll’s
Bolate night.
fter an improvisation by the enlire
Imble, the howling faded back in with
lano accompaniment. Winter began
Ming, almost chanting, in tune with the

Fa minute of this, he looked out and
HAnd how long has it been since
Bia yood howl,” and began howling

hi the wolf, The rest of the ensenr

began a haunting improvisation which cap:
tured the sense of mystery and anticipa:
tion, the dark and seemy underside of the
cheery sunshine, With the acoustics of the
hall, every note was heard, and the au:
dience was transfixed by this blues coming,
out of the dim and distant shadows,

Back on stage, Winter's soprano sax join:
ed the deep bassoon in a duet improvisa-
tion. Winter danced playfully around the
deep and powerful bassoon, creating an in
terplay of blues. The piece shifted into a
solo improvisation by Winter, whose
siveel, jazzy playing and pure sound was
exquisite in that way that only great jazz
can be.

Winter was joined by Eugene Freisen's
boppy walking cello. Freisen is a ited
musician, who did just about anything to
make sound with his cello, His playing, was

ably the most outstanding of anyone's

sup. He plucked melodies with

fast fingers, bowed long and

yentle, of fast and violent, snapped strings

into the cello for dramatic chythms and

harmonies, and sometimes slapped and

bounced the bow off the strings to become

the percission section of the ensemble, In

every facet he was a gifted musician and
improvisor

The fourth member! of the Consort js
French Horm player John Clarke. The horn
is not really a soloist’s insrument, but the
rich, mellow sound, although subtle, added
a different: musical dimension to the
performance

One of the last songs performed, called
Midnight. brought out the true spirit of the

aul Winter Consort. A village sony from

st Africa, Midnight quickly became an

ecstatic sing-a-long with the entire
audience

Midnight. like the animal music, and like
4 Winter's Dream, a sony, inspired by a
winter solstice in the Soviet Union and
written with the idea of transcending
political differences through nature
demonstrated what Paul Winter sung in
the chorus of the closing song, Common
Ground:

Ina circle of friends
Ina circle of sound
All our voices will blend
When we touch higher ground

Musically. intellectually and spiritually
an evening with the Paul Winter Consort
in the Troy Music Hall was about the most
one could expect from any concert.

es, the Intruding Dudes are back with another in a series of articles
designed to unlock the mystery of what life really means here at
SUNYA. One of the major institutions of higher learning at Albany is
the ever-present Business School. Statistics show that upwards of 50 percent of
all incoming freshmen express a desire to become business majors, With this
staggering statistic in mind, we asked students:

How does the Business School affect your life?

“The Business School has taught me the
true meaning of freedom through
unrestrained capitalism as well as the value
of sharpening negotiating skills. Wanna
buy a test?”

Suzy Q. (Dutch)

“What is this? A test? ... I wasn't told
about this, Oh my God, I'm not ready. Can

Lenore M. (Indian)

“It has taught me about strict competi-
tion, the demands of the business com:
munity, and the fight to stay on top. Lonly
wish that the actual courses could teach as
much.”

Nicholas X. (Wellington)

“My father told me that the business
school offered the best possible classical
education, He taught me that through

Heller’s God Doesn’t
Know Any Good Jokes

he word which rises most quickly
to mind al the end (and the b
ing, and the middle) of Joseph

Heller's newest novel, God Knows (Alfred
A. Knopf, 16.98) is self-indulgent. Thé
critically avelaimed author of Cateh-22
may have something to say with this latest

work, but if he does, he soon finds himself

too boxed down in egotism and anesiners

to make it either very clear, or very
ningful

John Keenan

God Knows is the story of David,
that “David,” the bookjacket_burbles en:
thusiastically), David, King of the Isra
slayer of Goliath etal

It seems, as the novel relates, that David

ear death, and his two sons, Adonijah
and Solomon, are jockeying for the suc
cessorship. David himself couldn't care
less: he's awvaiting an apology from God
for killing his first son by Bathsheba, as
punishment for David's adultery (the book
really goes much more smoothly it the
reader has some knowledge of the Old
Testament.)

The David Heller presents us with isa
bitter one, who has sor of an overview on
the whole history (and future) of the
world, a neat device which enables Heller
to give him lines like “Il let you in on a
secret about my son Solomon: he was dead
serious when he proposed cutting that
baby in half, that putz. I swear to God, The
dumb son of a bitch was trying to be fair,
not shrew.”

Yes, the book is funny, sometimes very

funny, but it’s always the snickering type
of funny usually associated with a dirty
joke, There are some prime bits in there
that you might want to remember, so as to
tell your friends ( My favorite, for exam-
ple, is when God tells Moses that he's go:
ing to destroy the Israclites, and Moses
begs him not to, pleading that God would
look really stupid back in Exypt for taking
his chosen people this far and then destroy:
injg them. Sinee God doesn't want to look
like a laughingstock back in Eyypt. he
telents); but there are bits in Truly
Tasteless Jokes that you might want to tell
your friends about, uo, and: that book
doesn't come with Joweph Heller's prestige,

Maybe Heller felt hed missed out on at
career in stand-up: comedy: the string of
onedliners and ok! Obl Festament jokes are
annoying both in their smugness and their
stupidity. Davi is aan incredibly hip
Hebron hing: he seems to have stepped out
of the inner ily, Characterization is. iy:
nored: David the character viewed-in the
most depth is ultimately: as unfinished ot
the others. Neither Bathsheba nor Solomon
is given any time to really develop; and
Solmon, in one of the strangest quick:
changes in history; becomes a moron, in-
tent on being king most of all because he
want “peacocks and apes” for his palace
The most important thing we learn about
David's trusted lieutenant Joab is his fond:
ness for the fifth rit

Overall, the impression left by God
Knows is an unpleasant one, funny in a
smarmy sense, but neither deep or even in:
teresting enough to salvage it from being
just another National Lampoon, o

Check the facts

Hto"the Editor:
Your editorial on Tuesday raised potentially valid
siticisms of activities by which an alleged previously nar-
rowly educated group of students will instead be more
broadly educated but at the expense of majors in one
ldepartment. Fortunately for the university, the ba
loremises of the editorial are abjectly wrong; unfortunate-
ly for your readers an unnecessary concern has possibly
been raised by your protesting non-existent behavior.

While it possibly is true that students majoring in
business at some institutions are narrowly focused on
business courses, such is not and has never been true at
this university. Indeed, a look in the Undergraduate
Bulletin at requirements for a major in business readily
reveals that fully 60 credits outside the School of Business
are needed for a degree. Further, these 60 credits are re-
[quired to be spread over the three liberal arts colleges.
Such breadth requirements are not new or the result of
[General Education requirements: during the late 70's and
early 80's when other colleges and schools allowed their
majors to concentrate the courses in one or two
disciplines, the School of Business had distribution re-
quirements that included almost the same range of
courses that is now needed. So at Albany, Business
students are now and always have been broadly educated.
‘Adding an anthropology course changes not in the least
the breadth of study; it may merely replace another social
science course,

‘The desire to include Anthropology in a business major
came from nowhere other than the Department of An-
thropology. The faculty of that department negotiated
for quite some time with the School of Business faculty to
have the course accepted. It is highly unlikely that the An-
thropology faculty would voluntarily weaken courses for
their own majors in order to serve business students, so

course format may have changed, it has not been
weakened.

This University is not putting the School of Business
ahead of anyone else, to say nothing of putting it ahead
of everyone else, The Department of Anthropology has
expanded the options that business students can choose,
and the courses have proven to be popular. Anthropology

is a good department and will undoubtedly remain a good
one while serving more students, Business majors are no
more broadly educated than they were before the new
course, but are about as liberally educated as students in
any other major.

1 am delighted that the ASP is concerned about
academic matters, the heart of a university, but hope that
tad more checking of facts is done before the next
criticism is launched,

Open dialogue

To the Editor:

A letter entitled ‘Different Methods" appeared in the
October 12 issue of the ASP.

The letter was a partial repsonse to the presentation |
had given before a “Don't Walk Alone’’ escort service
group on Monday, September 24, 1984, The topic was
Sexual Harassment,

The object of this reply is to place in proper and intend-
ed perspective the statements that Audrey C. Fischer
referred to. The context of the remarks was never in ques-
tion during the presentation. The statements were meant
as hypothetical examples of what some men say as ra
tionale for their untoward behavior, They were, by no
means, a characterization of my position on the subject. |
believe that sexual harassment, under any set of cir-
cumstances, absolutely reprehensible and should be
combatted with vigor by both men and women,

In keeping with my stated philosophy on this matter, |
verbally concurred with the young woman who described
sexual harassment at the meeting, I complimented her on
her response.

‘The concept that some men believe that they ‘have to
work hard to get sex"? was an attempt to explain why they
are so insistent to the point of harassment. There was no
intention of conveying that sexual harassment is a subject
to be treated with casualness and frivolity.

I sincerely hope that Ms. Fischer and other women
agree that it is important to understand the reasoning
behind the actions of some would-be sexual harassers,
This understanding can be utilized for purposes of educa-
tion and self-defense,

In any speech — audience situation, there is a possibili-
ty of several interpretations of communication. This is to
be regretted.

The reference to Zimbabwean males was by way of
pointing out the difference between American and so-
called Third World societies, The Women's movement in
America is far more advanced than that in the developing
countries where sexual harassment has not been brought
to the public forums.

An open dialogue between men and women on this sub-
ject can be a salutary exercise and should be encouraged
Thank you

To the Editor:
The ASP article of Oct.
Reflects National Trends’? has certain factual ommissions
xd to be corrected. New York State Students For
s presently active on about 40 campuses in the
ing all SUNY campuses. The Albany chapter
has participated in a televised debate and presently has a
list of over 200 volunteer supporters. Oct. 30 has been
declared NYS Students for Mondale Day and large ral
pected at all campuses including SUNY Albany.
jea that was expressed in the article that there isa
conservative trend among students is also misleading. A
poll taken at the Univ, of Buffalo shows students almost
evenly divided between Reagan and Mondale, with
another one-third still undecided. Women between the
ages of 18 and 25 also show a strong dislike of Reagan
and his policies; expecailly his anti-abortion, anti-ERA,
and anti-nuclear freeze positions.

Students are the group that are most vulnerable to
Reagan policies which have decreased federal aid to
education, hiked tuition, and increased the deficit — a
deficit which young people will pay for.

Walter Mondale has fought for young people all of his
life; he has fought for peace, for education, for jobs and
justice. Students will not be fooled by a president who
sleeps during Cabinet meetings and jokes about nuclear
war.

The Presidential election campaign is now drawing to a
close, In these last crucial weeks before the election, it is

essential that voters learn what issues are at stake-on
November 6, With this in mind, the New York Public In-
terest Research Group (NYPIRG) is sponsoring a debate
‘on Monday Oct. 29 between representatives of the
Reagan and Mondale Presidential campaigns. New York
State Assemblyman Michael Hoblock will be representing
President Reagan, and former U.S. Congressman Ned
Paitison will be speaking on behalf of Walter Mondale.

NYPIRG urges all students not only to attend this
debate, but also to take time to formulate and pose the
tough questions that demand answers in this campaign.

Attend the debate, get answers to issues of, concern to
you as a voter, and most importantly, stand up and be
counted in this campaign, The debate will be held in the
Campus.Center Assembly Hall at 7:30 p.m this Monday,

Watch the show

To the Edito

It’s a shame that valuable space was wasted in the ASP
last week, I'm referring to NoamEshka’s review of Lou
Reed's performance at the Palace Theatre a couple of
weeks back. Naturally, he has a right to his opinion, but it
was so obvious that he was self-serving and trying so hard
to sound intellectual because Reed himself writes about
serious stuff,

The problem was that there really wasn't a review, he
went into the Palace with certain preconceptions and no-

ns. Who needs {wo paragraphs about the crowd,
fabricating what they said? What really got me was that
he caught 30 seconds of the Swimming Pool Q's and
made a sweeping generalization which everyone who saw
them knew was not true. (They parodied Billy Idol, not
imitated him.)

As for Reed, I think most ageced that he put on a great
show. IfEshkarwas really astute he would have seen that
Reed himself realized that many of thove people seream-
ing and standing were real fans of his stuff and he got off
on that, Three weeks ago he played at Stony Brook to a
sedate crowd (no one stood) and he closed the show after
an hour and 20 minutes,

Next time, 1'vum, watch the show.

Grenada invasion

‘To the Editor:

As one of the medical students in Grenada at this time
last year, Iam deeply concerned about the so-called ‘*Stu-
dent Liberation Days” being organized on college cam-
puses by right-wing groups, purportedly to celebrate the
United States* invasion of Grenada

Whether my life and those of my fellow medical
students were endangered by the coup that overthrew
Maurice Bishop is very muchopen to question, 1t is clear,
however, that our “liberation” by the Reagan Ad:
ministration came at a terrible cost: dozens of young

ican, Cuban and Grenadian lives.

That is a fact that the people organizing ‘Student
Liberation Day" may not want you to know. Nor may
they want you to know the course they'd like to see our
nation follow in other parts of Latin America, namely
such places as Nicaragua, El Salvador and Honduras.

If American troops are sent to those countries as some
would like, they won't be facing a few hundred glorified
policeman and Cuban construction workers as they did in
Grenada. They won't be fighting on a sunny tropical
island, as they did in Grenada,

If American troops are sent to Central America, it's
more likely they will fight thousands of well-trained
soldiers and guerillas willing to give everything to defend
their homelands and their ideals

Instead of celebrating the liberation of students, their
actions only encourage the decimation of students, The
publicity from their rallies, if not countered immediately,
encourages the worst tendencies of our goverment (0
believe it will be politically acceptable to send us off to
war.

They should recognize, as El Salvadoran president Jose
Napoleon Duarte has, that hundreds of years of poverty,
exploitation and despair are at the roots of the conflict in
Central America, not the struggle between foreign
ideologies. They should recognize, as most students do,
that it only hurts the prospects for peace when our
government supports those who have the most to gain by
continued bloodshed: the contras in Nicaragua and the
government-tolerated death squads in El Salvador and
elsewhere.

There still is time to act before our goverment sends us
on a hopeless mission in Central America. Regardless of
the foolishness of these right-wing Student Liberation
Days,” let_us ensure that our country not repeat the
mistakes of the past by getting involved in an endless war
on the wrong side of the battle,

Buffalo’s SA pulls Marine Midland account

Front Page

“The endowment funds are
Iheld by investment companies
Jwho make investment analyses
lwhile holding the funds in
Ibanks,”” said SASU Vice Presi-
ent of Community Colleges An-
drew Chin.

“SUNY gets endowment funds
through donations, the majority
lof which are from Buffalo State
when it was still a private
school," Chin said. ‘These funds
fare managed by the two invest-
|ment companies MacKay and
Shields, and Reich and Tang.
MacKay and Shields holds its
funds in M & T bank of Buffalo,
land Reich and Tang holds its
funds in Marine Midland,” he
explained.

Many of the largest single Fund
investments are in companies that
are active in South Africa, accor-
ding to SASU. The largest
holding of the Fund in a private
corporation is $3.8 million in the
stock of IBM, which. has served
the South African Departments
of Prisons, Interior, Defense and
National Education, as well as a
department which administors
restrictive residential zones for
blacks in South Africa, according
to SASU.

Students split on

<Front Page

Senior Cliff Niebling said his
first concern is ‘who is my ad-
visor.”” He explained that his
department (Economics) is
undergoing a lot of changes and
with a constant flow of adjunct
professors and visiting pro-
fessors, he has to “‘check a new
advisor list every time."

Niebling added, ‘+1 expect that
if | make some stupid error, or go
into something blindly, that they
(his advisor) will point it out to
me." This has not been possible,
he said, since his advisor has
changed every semester.

Barry Geffner, a senior with a
double major in English and
Communications, claimed, '*Ad-
\visement in this school is a joke."*
He said he is dissatisfi with
both of his departments’ advise-
iment programs.

“The Communications depart-
ment is not bad if you don't mind
A's (leaching assistants) who
an't speak English,” he said.

“In the English department,
fou go to an office — not an ad-
‘sor,’ Geffner compl: xd. He
aid he disapproved of the depart-

rent’s advisement method, and

sisted, ‘They should assign in-
ividual advisors."

Professors at the advisement
fice, he said, ‘tare just faculty

pho put in office hours, they are
jot advisors.”

Other major holdings by the

Fund include General Motors and

Ford, which held the second and

vestments of

firms in South Africa and
Namibia in 1983,

“SASU has brought the issue
before the SUNY Board of
Trustees for several years. Their
Tesponse has always been the
Sullivan Principles," Chin said.
The Sullivan Principles are a
voluntary code of conduct
drafted in South Africa in 1976. It
calls for non-segregation in the
work place and fair employment.
These priniciples, according to
Chin, “‘are only principles, have
no form of enforcement, and
make no demands for change in
the fundamental structure of
apartheid.”*

“Presently, the strategy (of
SASU) for this year is to work
with student governments and
groups to divest, even symbolical-
ly, like not using IBM com-
puters," Chin said. “Two days
ago SUNY Binghamton’s SA
passed resolutions in favor of
SUNY divestments and in con-
demnation of Marriot Hotel,
which runs the food service
there," and which Binghamton
SA President Margie Leffter has
accused of supporting apartheid.

“Main campuses like New
Paltz and Oswego are aware, but
most (SUNY) campuses aren't
really aware’ of the issue of
divestiture, Chin said, SASU is
arranging for speakers like Jor-

sciousness.” In addition, he said,
SASU is planning a lobbying day
‘on a divestiture bill sponsored by
Buffalo Assemblyman Arthur
Eve,

Another long term project at
Buffalo, McAlevey said, is to
have two banking machines in-
stalled on campus that would pro-
vide access to Gold Dome and
other banks as well as M & T and
Marine Midland. ‘We can't kick
Marine Midland off campus.
These machines will allow
students to divest themselves —
we want to give students the op-
tion and then run education cam-
paigns,"” McAlevey said,

In a June 1984 letter to
delegates of the SASU Con.
ference, Chin stated, “Apartheid

an authorized institution of

iscrimination on the grounds of
skin color, commanded by statute
and integrated into every facet of
life, Divestment is our most effec-
tive weapon against apartheid and
we must become adept in its use,"”

advisement quality

is staffed this semester by 10
department faculty members,
who advise students in place of
serving on academic committees,

cording to Judy Barlow, Direc-
tor of Undergraduate Studies in
the English Department.

“Obviously 550 majors can not
be advised hy 10 people,” she
said, and she pointed out the im-
portance of the informal advise-
ment that students are urged to
seek out among professors in the
department.

Some students did choose this
route on their own.

Junior Mike Herder is a
Physics major. Instead of going
to an assigned advisor, he said, ‘1
got advice from different teachers
and put it together on my own.”

Howie Lindenbaum said advi
from peers is also helpful.
better advisement from students
that | know; who ‘were already
majors (in business)."" Howey
he cited no specific problems with
his advisor.

Dorf, the senior who wanted to
know what advisement is, ex-
plained that his sessions with his
advisor usually just involve the
signing of his program card. He
described his first meeting with
his assigned advisor in the
Psychology department: ‘The
first thing he said was ‘unless you
have some very specific questions,
let's not waste your time or
mine.

Since then, Dorf said, "I have

technicolor still of Marion Bran-
do as Don Corleane.

Pipia said he once made a
friend by reciting an entire scene
from the movie's script with him,
They then read passages of the
book aloud daily and held a
“Mario Puzo Octoberfest Party’
last year. A photograph of Pipia

nd his friends dressed as “the
mob" stands on his bedside table.
THE DON is also the name on
the back of his hockey jersey.

During the interview Pipia’s
older brother, who is in medical
school and who has the same

spoken to other professors who
have given’ me some advice. As

Another student defended
faculty advisors, although he
would not name his own depart-
ment. He said, ‘It's not their job.
They feel they have other respon-
sibilities and they don't have the

He accused the administration
of using professors as advisors as
a “cheap way out” and asserted,
“We should have professional,
paid advisement."

According to Gibson, CUE ad-
visors go through a concentrated
training program each year, while
faculty advisors are supplied with
the Undergraduate Bulletin along
with a copy of the Undergraduate
‘Academie Policy manual.

New Council rule to crack down
on committee meeting absences

By Andrea Corson

Central Council_ members who miss
more than five of their committee meetings
without an excuse will now lose their
Council seats under a rules amendment ap-
proved Wednesday night.

This expulsion can only be overriden by
‘a two-thirds majority of vote of Council,

according to the
amendment. Central
Council

Under the previous
policy, members with poor
attendance records had to
be impeached, and a hear-
ing had to be held before a decision could
be made regarding the member's status.

‘According to Council Chair Mitch Feig,
this change was made because every now
and then there are some Council members
who don’t show up to their committee
meetings due to their ‘‘lackadaisical at-
titude.” Now it has been made “more
possible for negligent council members to
be impeached,” said Feig.

The previous policy on committee
meetings, Feig said was ‘‘very vague.” It
“really had no rules on absences," he
asserted.

The amendment was passed by a vote of
25-5-0,

The regular policy on Council meetings
was not changed during this meeting, but,
Feig said, it most probably will be changed
during the next meeting,

The policy as it stands right now, ex-
plained Feig, is that if a Council member
misses more than three full Council
meetings in a row or a total of five, that
member would be referred to Council's In-
ternal Affairs Committee, which would
then bring the matter to Council. There.
must be a majority of Council present to
move to impeach the member. At the hear-
ing, the Supreme Court Chief Justice
presides and the member must be found
guilty by a two-thirds vote of Council.

As part of the same set of amendments
to policy and bylaws, Council's Student
Services Committee was expanded to en-
‘compass broader issues. The new commit-
tee is to be called the Student Community

Committee.

The first issue the committee will face is
fa resolution on a nuclear free zone for
SUNYA, which Council referred to the
committee Wednesday night.

In the nuclear free zone resolution,
Council's Student Action Committee call-
ed for the SUNYA administration to ban
from the SUNYA campus, all nuclear
power and weapons projects, “‘with the ex-
ception of those used for scientifi
poses and/or associated experiment

‘The resolution was referred to the Stu-
dent Community Committee, because, a
cording to Feig, it should not have
presented by the Student Action
Committee.

The new Student Community Commit-
tee, Feig said, was created to expand the
services that Council provides. The com-
mittee will now work on such issues as
minority concerns and off-campus student
problems. Feig said the committee will
‘widen its scope to deal with most aspects
of student life that aren't covered by other
committees.””

Central Council also voted down a pro:
posal to make tax sticker distributors at
Spring pre-registration salaried employees.

Tax stickers, affixed to the back of
SUNYA ID cards, are currently being
given out at the Student Association Con.
tact Office, They serve as proof that a stu
dent has paid the mandatory student ac
tivity fee, and entitle students to discounts
on parties, movies and many campus
events.

Council member Steve Landis introduc
ed the bill, for which $268.00 would have
been taken out of SA's Emergency Spen:
ding account, in order to pay students to
distribute the stickers,

Feig said he believes that SA wouldn't
have to spend the money for this, if every
Council member would spend one hour a
week distributing tax stickers during pre-
registration. This has been done in the
past.

The bill failed 8-11-0, so Council
members will again be distributing the tax
stickers themselves.

Campus porn gains acceptance

3
ministrators reluctantly go along with the
screenings, which are usually staged by
fraternities or campus film societies.

Fishback, an aide to Hereford at Virgi

k said Hereford finally decided

“This is a very complex issue of
values,’? NOW's Taylor replied,
“Hereford claims the school won't do
anything that is against community stan-
dards, but in Charlottesville, this is against
community standai

She maintained “the cost of human
dignity is too great to show this type of
film on public grounds of a state school,
espoecially as a fundraiser.” Taylor said

she sees the issue as ‘‘the last bastion of
men against women at a university.””

The courts, however, have been quick to
rule against those who would ban movies,
books or other forms of popular culture

In a May, 1983 landmark case, a
Michigan federal judge forced Grand
Valley State College administrators to pay
the $250 rental fee for an X-rated film a
student group wanted to show.

Even student groups have shied away
from outright bannings. In the last six
months, student politicians at Penn,
Hawaii, Arizona State and even Virginia
rejected measures that would have barred
X-rated films,

Hoping to steer a middle course, the
Cal-Santa Barbara student government in
1983 voted to allow showing pornographic
films, but to require'they be preceded by a

Computer science courses anger,
frustrate first year college students

Pittsburgh, PA
(COLLEGE PRESS SERVICE) Most
college freshmen are surprised,
confused and frustrated during
their first year of computer
courses, according to a newly-
released study.

The computer anxiety afflicts
incoming students in all majors,
but may be particularly severe
among liberal arts majors,
observers add.

‘Over 80 percent of all incoming
freshmen are ‘‘surprised’? by the
subject matter covered in com-
puter courses, the survey reveals.

Moreover, one of every two
freshmen are ‘‘confused” by
computer coursework, while
nearly 70 percent say the courses
actually make them "frustrated
and “‘angry.””

“When freshmen go away to
college they have a lot of new ex-
periences, But the computer
science courses turn out to be
much different than any of the
new students expected," said Lee
Sproull, a researcher at Carnegie
Mellon University who has
surveyed CMU freshmen over the
last three years to assess their at-
titudes toward computer courses
there,

Among other things, Sproull
says entering students find com-
puter courses ‘“‘more surprising,
more confusing and harder to get
a handle on’ than their other
courses.

And such confusion over com-
puters “tis true of liberal arts as

well as technical students," she
added.
One of the reasons for the so-
led computer anxiety, Sproul

“thrust into the computer
culture’ before they learn how
computers work and understand
the special language used in com-
puter courses,

Unlike many schools, ‘*com-
puting at CMU is not simply a
question of learning about com-
puters in a classroom. setting.
Computing is a part of the whole
work'life at a campus,”” Sproull
noted,

With more traditional subjects
like history, math, or physics, she
said, students learn in a sheltered,
academic environment, and case
their way into the subjects as their
ability and understanding
increases

But the “hands-on” experience
in computer classes catapaults
students directly into the real-life
world of computing, frequently
without any prior exposure to the
subject or the mac! Ss.

Thus, “students who are new
to computing end up using the
campus mainframe right beside
advanced users, which often
makes the newcomers feel in-
timidated and even more confus-
ed," she said,

‘That's a natural reaction for
just about anyone who has to use
computers in the presence of ex-
perienced users," agreed Mark
Tucker, director of the Project on

Information Technology and
Education in Washington, D.C.

“And the confusion and in-
timidation cycle repeats itself
each time you use a different
computer or a new piece of soft-
ware," he added, ‘which makes
it a lot different from learning
other college subjects."

To ease students’ entry into the
sampus computer culture, resear-
cher Sproull suggests colleges of-
fer computer orientation couses
so students will learn the basic
rules and lingo before taking a
computer course,

In addition, colleges need to

“make their terminal rooms less
aversive," she said,

“Many of the students we
surveyed said the computer rooms
reminded them of a scene out of
1984" because they were so cold
and sterile, Computer rooms
should be more warm and in-
viting,"* Sproull added.

Fortunately, the computer anx-
iety many freshmen experience
decreases as they become more
familiar with the subject, Sproul
noted,

“Some students become very
exhilarated by their new-found
knowledge and say ‘Wow, | never
knew this could be so fun.”

On the other hand, those who
never quite overcome the confu-
sion and frustration ‘end up do-
ing just enough to get by," while
still others give up on the subject
altogether, she said. )

Nutritionist’s study reveals sharp
weight gain for college students

State College, PA
(COLLEGE PRESS SERVICE) If
you're a college freshman, arm
yourself for a four-year battle of
the bulge,

A just-released study of Penn
State students by nutritionist Jean
Harvey and two other researchers
reveals men gain an average of 9.1
pounds during their first year of
college. Women average a nine-
pound gain,

And the extra pounds sneak up
cach year. Sophomores gain 7.3
pounds while juniors put on 7.8
pounds and seniors 6.5 pounds,
the study found.

Many students blame fattening
dorm food, but Harvey said the
study exonerates it.

“Residence (on or off campus)
wasn't a factor in weight
change,”’ she said, ‘‘So students’
claims that dorm cafeteria food
caused the gains aren’t accurate,””
she added,

The questionaire, sent to 2400
Penn State undergraduates, drew
about 1000 responses to 36 ques-
tions about weight, eating and ex-
excise, Results show 67 percent of

the men questioned and 62 per-
cent of the women admitted gain-
ing weight.

Only senior respondents lost
weight, apparently thanks to exer-
cise, Harvey said,

Emotional and psychological

ctors, such as living away from
home, weren't surve but
Harvey said he has “a feeling
people at Penn State are plann
a study to determine the influence
of these factors on student weight
gain.”

No one knows if all students
put on pounds at the clip
Penn State students do. ,

The American College Health
Association shows no record of
any national surveys similar to the
Penn State study, though a 1978
federal study determined college
students were an average of six
pounds heavier than the students
of 1968.

Yet overweight students and
health and nutritional concerns
have prompted many colleges to
implement diet and exercise
programs,

Wayne State University in

Detroit bases weight control on
behavioral methods to improve
cating habits.

Many student health clinic
publish diet tips in campus
Newspapers, especially during the
spring ‘get in shape’* rush,

In 1982, Stanford developed a
dorm nutrition program, posting
nutritional information for
cafeteria food. It listed the
‘alorie, fat and cholesterol con-
tents of each item it sold,

A similar program exists at che
Univer of the Pacific in
Stockton, Calif.

Dietician Joan Nikirk called it
an “educational program, mostly
presented through posters and
pamphlets to make students
aware of basic food groups and
nutrition,”*

But the program has done little
so far to change students’ eating
habits, Nikirk admitted, although
a survey shows 80 percent of the
students are aware of it.

“There's only so much you can
do in the dining halls,” she said,
adding, “Maybe next year we'll
take a different approach."

directed their viol “= to burning

beer bottles out of the towers,

“Burning paper on the walls
seems to be the latest thing,” said
Stevens, explaining that for some
reason this activity has increased
lately,

“This is not your average col-
lege prank," said Stevens, who is
concerned that recently students
haye been endangering their own
lives by igniting the posters,

Colleen Gembecki, an RA in
Johnson Hall on Colonial Quad,
reported a beer bottle had been
thrown from the tower through a
skylight into her section last
Saturday.

“It came through the skylight

ind bounced off a lounge chair,””
said Gembecki, noting that no
one was hurt in the incident.

Laura Wakefield, who was in
the lounge at approximately 7:30
p.m, on Saturday, when the bot-
tle was thrown, said the beer bat
le came within several feet of bi
ting her head,

I was talking to someone and
it just came down a few fect
away," said Wakefield, adding
that the bottle did not break when
it hit the floor,

“At first 1 thought someone
upstairs ‘had thrown it," said
Wakefield, ‘But then I saw the
hole in the skylight.”*

Phil Johnson, an RA in Morris
Hall on: Colonial, reported that
his section has had five.false fire
alamrs so far this year.

“We haven't found out what
caused them yet,"” said Johnson,
who also reported four broken
windows and a smashed candy
machine in his section,

“The amount of damage is in-
creasing," stated Stevens, who
said that the damage often comes
after parties in the dormitories.

**A lot of trash is left behind at

maintained Stevens. The

hazard,

Last weekend a stuffed lounge
chair was thrown out of the first
floor lounge in Waterbury Hall,
on Alumni Quad, said Stevens,

Scharl, however, does not
equate vandalism to lounges with
vandalism to fire safety equip-
ment. ‘Nobody's life is on the
line when a chair is thrown out of
the first floor lounge," he said,

“1 just wish students would
take their environment more
seriously," said Schart,

John Brancato, an RA on State
Quad, reported two false alarms,
a stolen fire extinguisher and a
broken window in his section.

“We've had a problem also
with smashed furniture,” said
Brancato, explaining that
students on the predominantly

(AP) There's an” appropriate,
Halloween-like atmosphere of
mystery surrounding Saturday's
college football clash between Ar-

The unreality starts with a com-
parison of how the teams are do-

tions: Many publications figured
Syracuse to go 7-4 or 8-3 and land
in a respectable bowl; Street and
Smith's annual Yearbook said

Mitch Gerber said, “When I
went out for the team last year, 1
hadn't played tennis seriously for
a couple of years, He thought |
had potential and put a lot of time
into me when he really didn't
have to, which helped me a lot.”

As for the season, Gerber said,
“We did exceptionally well. We
did a lot better than anyone

cted."”

enberg said, “I think the
best thing he did this season was
that he stressed the effort and not
the result, Not the winning or los-
ing, but to go out there and do
your best and the winning will
come with the effort. It’s a good
attitude to play with. In other
words, stressing the effort breeds
success.”

The whole team is looking for-
ward to the spring. Eisenberg
said, “There was good harmony
between the team this season,
Hopefully it will continue in the
spring. I'd like to thank my team-
mates for a really good season.”

“We had a great season," said

point total in seven years,

The mystery about the Cadets
is how good they are since three
of their four wins came against
Division 1-AA foes; the mystery
about Syracuse is its downright
spooky inability, to score,

And, says Syracuse Coach Dick
MacPherson, there's the ghost-
gallery fecling of trying to prepare
for an offensive formation his
squad hasn’t seen on the field yet.

“The Army's wishbone forma-
tion is a stranger in town," the
coach said, “All the defensive

Army-Syracuse game surrounded by mystery

Throw in the question about
who will quarterback the 3-4
Orangemen, and the 1:00 pm
game in the Carrier Dome has
‘enouigt question marks to serve as
a fodder for an Agatha Christie
novel.

Todd Norley, a junior who has
started most of Syracuse’ games
the past three seasons, has good
statistics - 90 completions in just
165 passes for 804 yards, But
Norley also has been at the helm
while Syracuse dropped into
105th place among 105 Division
1-A teams with a 9,4-point-per-
game scoring average.

Syracuse takes a three game
losing streak into the game and
has scored just one touchdown in

its last three games,

Don McPherson, a 1983 red-
shirt who high-jumped a 6-foot-9
in high school, is the left-handed
sprinter if Norley falters,

Tailgate party

The Alumni Association will sponsor
transportation to Saturday's football
game against Hofstra.

In addition, the van will be at Hofstra
at 11:30 a.m., three hours before
kickoff time for a tailgate party. Those
invited have been young alumni from
the New York City area and Long Island
‘as well as the parents of the players on
Albany's football team.

Anyone interested in transportation
or participating in the tailgate party
should call Robin Johnson at the Alum-
ni House.

Rivalry renewed

The Albany State-Union College
football rivalry has been renewed, but
not until 1988.

The Danes and Dutchmen will once
again meet on the gridiron for a four
year series starting in 1988, the two
schools have announced.

Director of Athletics Bill Moore of
Albany and Dick Sakala of Union sign-
ed a contract under which Albany State
visits Union on October 1, 1988. The
Danes will then host the contest in 1989
and 1991 while Union will host the 1990
game.

The initial three year contract ran out
last year with the Dutchmen taking two
out of the three games.

‘The first meeting came in 1981 with
Union edging the nationally-ranked
Danes, 10-7. A year later, Albany gain-
ed revenge with a 15-7 victory. Last
season, the Dutchmen whipped. the
Danes 24-7, on Union's rain-soaked ar-

tificial turf. The Dutchmen went on to
the national Division III finals at the
‘Amos Alonzo Stagg Bowl where they
came up short in their bid for the Na-
tional Championship.

This season, the Schenectady school is
ranked number two in the nation with
an undefeated record. They were
favored by Sports Illustrated in the pre-
season to take the National
Championship.

Men booters lose to RPI for ninth loss of year

By Dean Chang
ASOCIATE SPORTS EDITOR

There aren’t any excuses left
for Albany State's men's soccer
team to use after Wednesday's 2-0
defeat to RPI. The Danes have
made the transformation from an
inconsistent team to a downright

losing team.

RPI and Vassar (last Satur-
day's opponent) are teams that
Albany should beat if talent were
the barometer of victory. Unfor-
tunately, effort plays a larger role
i games. The only few
times that Albany exerts some ef-
fort is when “they play superior
opponents, such as Oneonta,
Union or Binghamton. But that
doesn't make a winning team, as
the Danes’ 3-9-2 record indicates,

Injuries, inexperience, bad calls
and even bad luck have been
given as reasons for Albany's los-
ing season. The first two are
reasonable explanations for some
of Albany's losses, But Albany
Head Coach Bill Schieffelin dis-
counts the last theory.

“You can only have bad luck
for so long," said Schieffelin,
“Good teams tend to get lucky by
putting pressure on and playing
aggressively. We're grabbing for
straws if we're looking for good
luck.

Nezaj feels that a team that
relies on effort rather than ability
is a team that will win most of its

mes. ‘

‘A lot of times, the players can

get by on natural ability without
as_much effort," said Nezaj,
“They'll watch the other team

“We were unlucky against
Vassar but we only scored one
goal," continued Schieffelin.
“Against that caliber of team, we
should be creating our own op-
portunities. We should be saying
that we scored a few goals and
that we could have scored more if
we're lucky. The only excuse we
have is that our play isn’t good.”

The formerly offensive-minded
Danes have found themselves in
the midst of a scoring drought
Only one goal has been produced
in the past two games, and that
one was the result of a gross inef-
ficiency by Vassar’s goalkeeper.

Albany's last four games though,
the dynamic duo have scored
zilch.

"If Jerry and Tihan play
together, things should happen,””
said Schieffelin. ‘‘I think they feel
pressured to score and they're
playing too much one-on-one in-
dividual play as a result. Not
enough teamwork is creating a
problem.”

Players like Isaacs, Presbie and
captain Jeff Hackett are supposed
to lead the team by exemplary
play, and not by bad example.

“When Jeff and Jerry are out
there now, either you don’t notice

Dane netmen look back on successful season

With an 8-1 loss to West Point to start the season,
things were not looking too good for the Albany men's
tennis team, This period was brief, but not brief enough
for them to be predicted not to take « sixth straight

Said Mark Sanders, “We had the feeling we

There was never a point where we all had it together at the
same time, until the SUNYACS, where we all matured at
the same time,"

Finishing the season with a sixth straight SUNYAC
championship and a 7-2 record, Lewis felt that the team
accomplished much more than he had expected. The team
also took first place in the RPI tournament and a strong
third in the ECAC, finishing ahead of strong teams like
the University of Vermont, Tufis and the University of
Rhode Island.

“We spent a lot of time on doubles and it came through
for us," said Lewis, referring to both the RPI and
SUNYAC tournaments in which doubles play was key.
“It has convinced me more than ever that we have to
spend time on doubles.””

This is Lewis’ 14th year coaching the Danes. He has
720 winning percentage with an overall record of 144
wins and 56 losses. In that span the Danes have taken

East, In May of 1983 the NCAA Division III tournament
was hosted by Albany as well as three ECAC tour-

Albany has brought some really great tennis," said
Lewis.
Lewis also teaches tennis classes for SUNYA and works
at a country club in the summer.
I think he brought out a positive attitude on the team,"
said Eisenberg. “There was a winning attitude on the

Sanders, who has been on the team four years,
remembers the time when Lewis took an injured Sanders

Usually it takes more than just two
‘games before a football rivalry is establish-
ed between two schools. The Albany State-
Hofstra rivalry has apparently forgotten
about this criterion,

The two schools, whose campuses are
located 170 miles apart, have met just
twice - once in 1974 and again last season,

Nevertheless, their rivalry is strong.
With the bulk of Albany's student popula-
tion, along with one-fifth of the football
team, residing from the Long Island-
Metropolitan area, there is valid reasoning
to why there is a large amount of emo-
tional intensity surrounding tomorrow's
game. Add to that the fact that Hofstra is
ranked sixth nationally, and you have all
the trappings of what perhaps is the Danes
biggest game of the season.

“It's for the bragging rights of Long
Island," quipped Sports Information
Director Mark Cunningham,

“It's a big game," said wide reciever
John Donnelly, who lives in Huntington.
“A lot of our players will have a bunch of
friends and family coming to the game and
we want to show everyone we're better
than a 3-4 team. Even in our school people
have been coming up to me and saying, ‘I
hear Hofstra’s ranked sixth, you guys are
going to get killed.’ Well, I think we could
beat Hofstra.”

The idea is not that inconceivable,
though. Hofstra does have an undefeated

tience and poise and spent most of the se-
cond half in Vassar’s end of the field.

“Our passing game has been improving
every week and it worked exceptionally
well against Castleton and Vassar,”” ex-
plained Head Coach Amy Kidder.

The game went into overtime and
Lazarides broke the scoreless tie with an
unassisted goal, her sixth of the season
which sailed over the outstretched hands
of Vassar’s keeper, This goal fired the
team up and they played aggressively for
the remainder ‘of the overtime.

Their hard work resulted in Stam
booting a cannon shot from 20 feet out to
provide an insurance goal, It was a

+ physical game in which players were tuckl-

ing hard and fighting for every ball, It was
the kind of win that every team savors.
‘The game against Castieton on Monday
was also a good win for the Danes, Sue
Frost opened up the scoring at 39:49 of the
first half with an assist from Lazarides,
The team took a 1-0 lead into the locker-

7-0 record compared to Albany's 3-4 clip;

‘And the Dutchmen’s defense has allowed
an average of just 11 points a game. Still, it
is believed by many, that the strength of
their schedule has:plenty to do with their
success.

“If they played Ithaca, New Haven,
Springfield, Southern Connecticut, and
Norwich,” said Coach Bob Ford, ‘I'm
sure they wouldn't be undefeated. I’m not
saying that all the teams they play are
humpty-dumpty, but many of them are."

“1 don’t think their schedule is that
‘easy’,”” added safety Ray Priore, ‘But
their ‘schedule is not nearly as tough as
ours. We'll be one of the toughest teams
they'll play all year.”

The Dutchman offense is led by a
former UCLA quarterback Tom
McLaughlin, who has completed 139
passes for 11 touchdowns and 1103 yards.
He's been the media darling of the New
York City tabloids all season

“*He’s an excellent thrower,” said Ford.
“{ don’t know if he’s the best quarterback
we've faced this season, That kid from
New Haven (Paul Kelly) was real good.””

The Dutchmen's top reciever is split end
Emil Wohlgemuth. He has caught 42
passes for 685 yards and five touchdown

Needless to say, the Danes defense will
have to generate some sort of pass rush to
stop the Dutchman passing attack. But the

room at halftime and returned to play
what Kidder called, “their best half this
season.

Kosalek scored at 9:05 of the second
half and Lazarides ended the scoring with
a goal at 19:18.

The Danes began their final week of
play in Plattsburgh last Friday where they
lost by a score of 3-1. The officiating was
the cause of some controversy according to
Kidder.

“They would tackle our players and we
wouldn't get the call and everytime we
touched them they would,"’ said Kidder.
“It seemed like our players were fighting
against the referees as much as they were
against Plattsburgh.”

Much of this season has been a learning

almost the identical team next year. Beset
by a gruelling schedule, the team became
closer as the season progressed and now

passed by the SUNY Board of
Trustees last week doesn't call
for a tuition hike — but that’s
ho guarantee students won't be

Last year New York State
Governor Mario Cuomo put a
$200 tuition increase in his
budget which had not been
proposed by the SUNY Board
of Trustees. The proposal was,
however, later defeated by the
legislature.

Furthermore, the legisla
has, in past years, approved
tuition hikes on their own,

The proposed budget, pass:
ed by the SUNY Board of
Trustees on October 24, will
now go before the governor
and the State Division of the
Budget for review, and finally
to the legislature nest. spring

cent from the 1984-85 budget

The SUNY budget, proposed
for the 29 college campuses and
30 locally sponsored communi-
ty colleges, is, mainly targeted
to protect the current invest-
ment in the staff and physical
plant, according to SUNY
Chancellor Clifton Wharton,

We have targeted our

Wharton also announced last
Wednesday that, because of
new legislation offering incen:
tives for early retirement, there
will be 2,900 possible early
retirees throughout the SUNY
system, Almost 250 SUNYA
faculty members are eligible for
the program

Wharton said he plans to

SUNY employees to take
advantage of the early retire
ment package, made possible
by the law, which was signed by
Cuomo, in order 10 provide

more employment oppor-

tunities for women, minorities
and disabled job applicants,

“This is an impressive op-
portunity to engage in affir-
mative action,’ Wharton
explained.

William Hedberg said the new
tay will allow for more growth
in the entire SUNY system,

Hedberg said that besides
trying 10 reeruit new pro-
Fessors, the university is, “like
cotter institutions, looking for
ways to save funds.

“We are still a young univer-
sity,” said Hedberg, “We are
recognizing @ period of conti-
nuing fiscal trouble,””

To be eligible for the early
retirement program, SUNY
employees must be $5 years old
by their retirement date and
